Our Future In Space

Have a cap, a baseball type cap With the NASA symbol emblazoned Had an interesting trip to Cape Canaveral A symbol of man's dedication Feels so good wearing this cap Such a tribute to man's ingenuity Each day something else blows my mind The progress, the real continuity In leaps and bounds we move ahead It's left my poor mind in the dust Am really too old to keep abreast anymore Age makes it difficult to adjust So from little ole me I'm sending this A tribute to those amazing people Who've forged this path to heaven above To me it all seems so surreal

My thoughts exactly, Jack. Time flies. Some of the earliest, first astronauts have died off.
